Chapter 624: Would You Like to Try?

"The ice cream shop is opening tomorrow! Will I really be alright on my own? Arrrgh! I'm so nervous! But Boss placed so much trust in me, I have to do a good job!"

In a dim alley, Yabemiya's voice reverberated as she walked with a nervous yet expectant look on her face.

This alley was one that she had to pass through on her way home. At night, the alley was pitch-black and the rows of houses on either side were very close to each other, thus making it difficult for even the moonlight to illuminate the alley. It was very quiet here, but also a little eerie.

The sound of Yabemiya's shoes treading the ground was particularly noticeable in the silent alley.

All of a sudden, a thud sounded from one of the courtyards nearby. It sounded as if something had fallen onto the ground, giving Yabemiya a fright.

"What was that?" Yabemiya stopped next to a wall and listened intently, only to find that the sound in the courtyard had disappeared.
